Unfortunately, there are a number of different notations used for the other two coordinates. Either or is used to refer to the radial coordinate and either or to the azimuthal coordinates. Arfken (1985), for instance, uses, while Beyer (1987) uses. In this work, the notation is used. The following table summarizes notational conventions used by a number of authors. (radial, azimuthal, vertical) (Rr, Ttheta, Zz) reference this work, Beyer (1987, p. 212) SetCoordinates[Cylindrical] in the Mathematica package VectorAnalysis`) Arfken (1985, p. 95) Other Wolfram Web Resources» Moon and Spencer (1988, p. 12) Korn and Korn (1968, p. 60) Morse and Feshbach (1953) In terms of the Cartesian coordinates, (1) (2) (3) where,,, and the inverse tangent must be suitably defined to take the correct quadrant of into account. In terms of,, and (4) (5) (6) Note that Morse and Feshbach (1953) define the cylindrical coordinates by (7) (8) (9) where and. The metric elements of the cylindrical coordinates are (10) (11) (12) so the scale factors are (13) (14) (15) The line element is (16) and the volume element is (17) The Jacobian is 1 of 5 1/18/ :07 PM
